The third boss battle in Nioh 3 against Kamaitachi will be a challenge. The next Crucible Spike will take place. You can also find a guide to the locations of the first boss fight and second boss fight on this website.

You can find the location marked on the map. You’ll first need to defeat the two regular waves of enemies. They’re easy to handle, but you should try not to take any damage. You will need health potions for the next battle against Kamaitachi.

Kamaitachi 3rd encounter in Crucible Spike

This boss battle against Kamaitachi does not feature any new boss attacks or mechanics. It’s all the same. Just one thing is different. Kamaitachi’s health bar is bigger and his attacks are more powerful, in my opinion. This beast defeated you very quickly with a slight loss of concentration or control. Ses attacks are equally fast and dangerous. You will need some time to adjust to the chaos and speed of these attacks. You will have a much easier time if you can learn to block or dodge Kamaitachi’s attacks.

You may think that the battle is easy at first because you have already defeated your opponent twice. In reality, it’s not going to be as easy this time. This time, we’re lucky to have a large battle arena, which will be cleared even more by the boss as he launches attacks. There is plenty of room to maneuver and avoid attacks. In boss battles, my strategy is to stay as far away as possible from the boss. This is a disadvantage in this fight because Kamaitachi’s ranged attacks are more powerful than his close combat. I was able to avoid his attacks and hit the boss with Ninja Tools by adapting.

Kamaitachi boss fight

In my previous battles with Kamaitachi, I had not used my ultimate power. I used my usual tactics. This time, however, I found the boss to be a real challenge. By the end of the battle, I’d used all my Ninja Tools so I activated the ultimate ability without hesitation. I jump, then hit the heavy attack button.

The combo is usually very damaging, but Kamaitachi was constantly moving and changing positions, so I had to take my time to get close enough to melee fight. After the boss’s ultimate ability, he had little health and my Ninja Tools returned, so it was easy to win. The mission is complete once you’ve collected the reward.
